As a man that actually lost 120lbs.. hes not wrong. Sometimes when I meet new people and theyre not comfortable around me I tell them how much weight I lost. They immediately open up like Im superman or some shit lol.

LMAOOOOOOOOOOO

[@amazinggrace5692]

Baby boomer here. Men walk on the curb side in case of splashing from cars. That’s what I was told along with restaurant rules … men push your chair in behind you, stand when a woman stood, and men sat facing the wall because “he should only have eyes for you”. Of course that’s when men would open doors, help you into and out of the car, and offer his arm. My father always tipped his hat to a lady. These were done as a sign of respect, kindness, or helpfulness and not as a sign that women were weaker or less able. So in the present day, remember to take whatever actions now represent being kind, respectful, and helpful. 💕🐝💕🇺🇸

[@henriettaidoko3989]

It's always funny seeing Nigerians that grew up abroad try to do a Nigerian accent. This guy sounds like he's from wakanda 😂
